Ordered the chicken and waffles and the sauces that came with it were so delicious! The food was not 5/5 because some areas of the chicken were overly crispy and ended up being difficult to cut into. The service was quite slow, however, service was friendly. read more

The bar that tries to be cute but isn't. Located on door 55, they fall short of what they could be. We went on a Thursday night expecting it to be busier. It was so slow we thought they were closed. The service was ridiculous. Server was very rude and slow. Usually I'm mindful but we were the only party there besides the few single dudes at the bar. We arrived during late night menu which was also a disappointment. Bar tender also over served many members of our party who should not have been served. Clean bathrooms. Cauliflower was fantastic. read more

No vegan gluten free items on the menu. I came with the family who ordered burgers and chicken and waffles....they were satisfied. Hubby had the spinach salad and thought it was fine. The only item on the menu I could have was the spinach salad without the cheese. It was basically a big bowl of spinach and dressing with some red onions and stale walnuts in it. I was not impressed. We sat indoors as it was quite windy but they do have a small patio. I would have liked to have a couple of other options to choose from. read more

I've been to Port Credit for dinner a handful of times, and today we decided to stop into Door FiftyFive. In search of a patio on a hot day, we got right in. Nicole, our server was wonderful. Always quick with refills, food was out soon after we ordered, and she was very attentive. Being from Buffalo, I am extremely critical of wings. I saw the smoked wings on the menu and decided to try them out. They were great. The honey hot option came with two dipping sauces that offered both a sweet and smokey taste. For entrees, the Peri Peri chicken was more than enough. Delicious mashed potatoes and plentiful pickles (the best part!) The burger was juicy and a great option. I tend to like a crispier fry, so that was my only issue, however they did have good flavor. I'll be back! read more

Atmosphere: very casual, seat yourselves, bar environment but only one TV that wasn't very large DJ plays on weekends after 9pm or whenever the game ends Service: mix feeling here the waitress we had was very inattentive, she left us for long periods of time checking on tables beside us but skipping over ours, we had to call her over almost every time we needed something it was very annoying, to the point another server saw that we were being neglected and came over top help us she was really nice, as well as a man from the bar who saw me looking at the hot sauce wall and brought me some he recommended. Food: mozzarella sticks OMG they were huge. And I loved the breading it was flavorful and had a little kick to it. The wings, somehow we got a whole drumstick lol they were good. The seafood stuffed medallions has a nice creamy sauce note that the medallions have trout stuffed in them so if you don't like trout you may want to skip this dish. Lastly the odb chicken that is served in a bucket over thier thyme fries which is a mixture of regular and sweet potatoes. The chicken was really hot temperature wise and juicy but I found that there Was WAY to much breading and the breading was salty I took a lot of it off the pieces of chicken are quite large this meal can feed 2 people. The gravy tasted like banquet hall gravy lol and the fries were not good and I notice other tables not eating thier fries as well. Overall I do see potential and room for growth if I was in the area again I would be open to giving them another chance. I would probably go for the smoked bbq options next time. read more

Good southern fare, nice ambiance, and a great selection of drinks. This place attracts a diverse crowd and I've used it for everything from dates to nights out with the boys. You could take your mom or dad here if they were cool, but maybe grandma and grandpa might not appreciate it as much -- too hip for them I'd say. Take them to Snug Harbour for overhyped seafood nearby instead! I'd go here more often if it wasn't so out of the way for me living in the northern part of Mississauga. Parking can be sometimes hard to find - the library parking lot nearby is often full at night but it's a large lot so you might get lucky. read more

Started well. Went in to have a bite to eat and watch football(only person to pay attention to the TV). Was watching the football game until a manager came in and decided her and her friend wanted to watch baseball. Stuck around for a bit to see how long it would take to get another drink. Left before she asked if I wanted another. read more

Great place to stop off for some munchies! They have a shareables menu for $7 which includes a variety of appetizers or shareable. Salad and sliders were okay. Chicken sandwich and mozzarella sticks were great! read more

Came here last night with one of my girlfriends to catch up for dinner and some drinks. I've heard about this place before, and have been meaning to check it out for some time now. Must I say, this place is AMAZINGGG. I loved every aspect of my experience here. I came to Door FiftyFive on a snowy-blizzardy night, and the only thing I found difficult was the parking. Food- I ordered the platter (as it states it easily feeds two). This "Boss" Platter (~$55) included Buttermilk Chicken (2pc.) with amazing gravy, Nachos & Chili, Sausage, Beef, Ribs (8 rack)... if I'm forgetting something... it's probably because I was distracted by the abundance of flavours going on in my mouth (haha!)... no really, it was that good. Everything on that platter was excellent. I was trying to find something to criticize, but for the most part it was amazing. HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend. Also bought a bottle of Malbec on the side ~$29. Service- Excellent. Was very attentive to our table. No complaints. Polite, friendly, and funny! Live music playing in the background. Acoustics! (Such a great atmosphere!!!) Parking- Hard to find. Usually parallel to the side of the street. MUST TRY! read more

I don't drink, so if you find me at a bar, it's because of the food or the 1/2 off appetizers during happy hour. What drew me to this place was the Blackened Shrimp and Gumbo Cheddar Grits. Now let me start off by saying that I hate grits; but I was always curious about the combination of shrimp and grits, especially since they're popular in the South. I LOVE Southern cooking, so I was willing to put aside my previous experience with grits to try something new. Very laid back atmosphere; come in and seat yourself then the waiters in baseball shirts and caps will come along and take your order. Interesting mix of people: business people in suits, Goth girls, and regulars in plaid shirts and jeans. The live music was LOUD so we opted to sit farthest away from the stage. The guitarist was pretty good playing a variety of music from county, rock and I even heard one of the songs from the movie Breakfast Club. HUBBY AND I SHARED: - Blackened Shrimp and Gumbo (tomato broth) Cheddar Grits which also came with mussels. The mussels were briny (bleh) but tender, the shrimp were meaty but not as fresh as I would like (Hey I'm from Socal) but the grits turned my world upside down! It was love at first bite OH MY MY MY! I would have never imagined that I would be a fan of savoury grits. - The Capone Brisket Sandwich came with a mix of sweet potato and regular potato fries with a side of delicious Smoked Horseradish Alabama Sauce. The brisket was piled high but the meat was on the dry side. It was missing the Jack Daniel's bbq sauce, so I used the sauce that came with the fries. The sandwich combined with sauce had good flavor. Lots of delicious sounding items on the menu, great atmosphere and a cool mix of people. Whether you come to drink or not, you'll have a good time. read more

honesty, we've been coming from Toronto for special occasions as we celebrate special moments with Port Credit. anyways, server was spectacular but our only order was an appetizer of Brussels sprouts with drinks. black. horrible appetizers. way over burnt black. black. mangers offered a discount for black appetizers is when I was like huh you suck. treat amazing servers better. management sucks. We didn't tip. getting black, burnt food is not normal. read more

This spot is located in the hip neighbourhood of Port Credit in Missisauga with plenty of parking close by. They're well known for southern comfort food and whiskey. Not going to lie, I'm not a big meat eater. So much so that my pal had to properly teach me how to eat ribs while I was here. However, everything we ate was delicious. Interior reminded me of a cool rustic cabin, with wooden tables, and intimate lighting to match. There were a handful of patio tables, but it wasn't too busy when we came in so we were able to snag a table outside so we were able to enjoy a beautiful Ontario June evening. Service was a little bit slower, but we didn't mind as much since we were catching up. They have an extensive list of whiskeys and cocktails. I was overwhelmed with excitement with how many delicious alcoholic goodies there were. My first drink was the Strawberry Dream which was a strawberry gin based drink. I loved it! My pals got a couple of old fashioneds, which were very well made! To eat, our group of 3 split a few things: the 1/2 chicken 1/2 ribs platter, the wings platter, and the mac and cheese. Wow. It was a lot of food. I LOVED their piri piri chicken. Apparently it's marinated for 24 hours and smoked for 2.5 hours to give it that special flavour. I also really enjoyed the mac and cheese - I'd highly recommend the piri piri chicken and mac and cheese. YUM! Definitely a cool spot with live music on certain nights. I can see this place being a bumpin' spot on the weekends. Again, I'm not the biggest meat eater, but I still enjoyed this place. Meat lovers rejoice, this spot is for you! read more

Ambience- cool and eclectic 4/5 Food- its a remix of BBQ- with plentiful fusion styled sauces that accompanied my wings. Some made sense- others i was confused. Their biscuits were amazing and the mac and cheese was pretty good as well. 3/5 Service- I dont know what we did to annoy Kasia other then be a large group (all couples in our 30's) but from the get-go her attention was really hard to get. I felt like we were an obstacle in the way of ending her night. However Kasia did assist in getting us beverages and taking our order and getting us food. She did conveniently forget to mention that they had run out of brisket before hand- and halfway thru a table of 10 ordering is when that update had come. Come on Kasia- that is one of your most popular dishes! you dont think a heads up would be good? Anyways its not her fault or problem that brisket is out right. So we order our food and enjoy the rest of the evening and when it comes to pay. We discover that Kasia also left out another piece of information- that our bills will have auto gratuity of 20%. So every body double tipped. 40% tip. Nice job Kasia? i guess -1/5 read more

It took a handful of visits to Door 55 to prompt me to finally review the place, but here it is. It's situated in Port Credit, which surprisingly is still somewhat of a hidden gem to those outside of the area. If Port Credit's harbor brings attention to the natural beauty in the area, Door 55 is leading the way of bringing attention to the area's growing bar and patio scene. Door 55 is a great cocktail bar by any standard, and not just good "for the suburbs". They have a massive drink menu and the wall of alcohol behind the bar goes on for days. At least a dozen beers on tap too. They go for a rustic look and purposefully for a speakeasy vibe. They often have a DJ on weekends and live music at times. The menu is fairly eclectic, but overall there's mostly a southern and cajun feel to the menu. Most recently I went in and shared an order of their fish tacos and the roast tomato poblano cheese dip. Though fish tacos are everywhere now, theirs really stood out! Being a texture guy, I loved that they were served with the soft taco wrapped around the hard taco gordita style. Perfect lightly-pickled red cabbage, fish was great and it had a great sauce. It may have been a special as I don't see it on their menu presently. Though the menu can tilt a bit on the higher side, the cheese dip is exceptional value. $9 for a huge plate of house-made nachos and a big cheese dip which certainly has a lot of tomato taste into it. It could be improved for my tastes by some more poblano and bringing out a little more heat. Each visit here has been great and there will be more. Anyone curious about visiting the area needs to check it out and make a stop at Door 55 a priority. read more

Great location but not so great food. We waited about 10 minutes for our drinks and another 40 for our food. The mussels looked good but over half of them were empty without anything inside. You would think they fell into the cream sauce, but when fishing around I actually found a sweet potato fry in there instead. We got the boss platter and everything but the garlic bread was untouched. The ribs were rock hard only a knife could cut through them. The brisket and chicken were dry, the salads were clumped together like they have been sitting out all day. We were not impressed. My recommendation: Come for patio and drinks after you have your belly full eating elsewhere read more

Good atmosphere, loud music and ok food + pricy! We went there on a Wednesday night around 9:30. The bar was packed except the areas around the band because it was too loud I guess. The atmosphere and music were great but TOO LOUD! The food was good, not perfect. We ordered their Notorious BIG Burger and the brisket sandwich. The burger was huge, as you read the menu you can guess how big it would be. On top of the burger there was a sunny side up egg that makes the burger even more special. Honestly I saw the picture of this burger on Yelp and wanted it! It was so tempting! Mine, however; the meat was kinda burned and salty! I ate it because I was hungry but that was not the best meat you can have in such a hamburger with the price of $19. I expected more in terms of its taste not just its look! The sandwich was smaller and tastier. The buns were my favorite part! Different than the typical burger bun at a burger shop, they were very good! They both came with good amount of fries which we couldn't finish them up. The servers were ok, not pay too much attention. The girl who took our order was bartender and didn't care that much. Overall it was good for only once and won't be back. read more

This place has all the ingredients for a solid 4.5/5 stars rating!!There is no way you can go here and leave unhappy, at least I want to believe so! So I went here after reading Kris/Stephanie's reviews and was absolutely satisfied with what I was offered! Let's begin with the ambience, this place has such a welcoming and cozy feeler to it.The lighting of the bar gives it such a cool effect to the place.And the late night band gives the place more life!I walked in on a weekday and believe me this place was packed!This for me is the biggest indicator of a successful joint! The service by our bartender was absolutely amazing..he made sure he reached to us every now and then.He also gave us some recommendations on the menu.He was energetic and quick and gave us outstanding service. The food that we ordered came out quick and was absolutely delicious.We came here after dinner so we weren't too hungry but after coming here I had to try their cornbread cupcakes and chicken waffle.Both the items were cooked to perfection. The cornbread cupcakes were bite size topped with jalapeños bits.They were crisp from outside and moist from inside and were served were smoked honey butter. And the chicken with waffle was a generous size entree which me and my husband shared.The chicken was battered in pimento/hot sauce and was beautifully fried.The waffle was perfectly made and the maple syrup complemented the combination well.The best part was the thick gravy!I shall be coming back here to have more of this! I guess I covered the service, ambience and taste!All three met my expectations.This is definitely a place where you will want to return after the first visit.Kudos team Fifty Five for putting such an amazing show!! read more

This is a review of my last visit which was just before COVID. Door FiftyFive is a hidden gem in Port Credit! I had a great first experience. staff was attentive, great ambience, and kind of rustic decor going on. It's a really neat place to go with a group of people, I had friends from out of town and we met up there. When we first got there around 7:30ish it was at about 60% capacity, but by the time we left around 9ish there was a very long line forming outside with an hour wait. The food was GREAT. My friends all had drinks that they all really enjoyed. My friend had the The Capone Brisket Sandwich, which was a pulled beef sandwich with melted cheese and bbq sauce on it. Brisket beef is typically not my preference, but i was very impressed with the taste of this burger. The meat was well seasoned but the sauce was the real superstar. I had the Notorious BIG Burger, it was delicious! It really was huge, the meat was perfectly seasoned and cooked. Not only was the meat so flavourful all the toppings really complimented the burger. It came with an egg (sunny side up), and aged cheddar. It is a true masterpiece. I had a lovely experience and would definitely go back, maybe next time I'll stick around a little longer and experience the DJ! read more

Had a great mocktail and late dinner. Everyone was attentive and friendly and I enjoyed the DJ night and dance floor too :)

I wanted to get some dinner and a few drinks to wind down the week. So I decided on Door 55 in port credit. This place is my happy spot, crafted cocktails and great food. I started off with a Sazerac made with lot 40 and Dhillons absinthe. Made to perfection. Ordered the Boss platter. It has a bit of everything. Ribs , fried chicken, briskets and sausage. Fries and chili. It's was good for 2 but we had left overs.I then ordered a vieux carre.for dessert. Over a satisfying meal. Would recommend. Yum! Note- This review is solely the opinion of the reviewer and NOT the opinion of Yelp or any of its staff. read more

Located at the heart of trendy Port Credit, this place is surrounded by other bars and restaurants that make for a lively outing. This is a happening place which I would attribute to their awesome food, great ambiance, eclectic decor and large patio. Whether you visit during the daytime or at night, you will not be disappointed. During the daytime, enjoy the outdoor patio, weather permitting, or should the weather be uncooperative, you will definitely enjoy the inside decor and warm, cozy ambiance of the interior. They have hanging light bulbs which are interesting, but one quirk I have about the lights is that they flicker, which can be distracting. I visited this place both during the day and at night. At night, the place is bustling, lively and a good night outing. I definitely recommend the bbq platter for two. The quanity and quality is to die for!! Everything in that platter was awesome. The mac and cheese, the sauces, the distinct flavours of the different bbq's, everything!!! But if you have to try just one thing, then I would recommend you try the fried chicken. Yum!!!!! The service was not too great, the last time I went. Even though we advised that everything should be brought out at the same time, they brought out the chicken wings as appetizer first. Considering that I was and my companions were starving, this was not great at all. The staff didn't come around, we had to flag them down with great effort. The manager advised that it was his fault as he told the staff to bring the chicken wings first, however, we advised him that we told our server to ensure that all food come out at the same time. Because of this debacle, we were eyeing each others food hungrily. Anyway, there was some leftover from the platter for two and the food was awesome so I still give this place a four star. Service definitely needs to be amped up and our server should have come around and spoke up about our request to have all food served at the same time. read more

I've been hearing so much about this place so I thought I'd organize a dinner here with some friends. The atmosphere is that of a typical bar/ lounge. The service is great, staff were all very approachable. I had seen pictures and reviews about their chicken and waffles. I ordered that and found it okay. The breading on the chicken was very salty and slightly unappetizing the more you ate. The waffle I got was slightly burnt underneath. I wouldn't say I was impressed by my meal. My husband ordered the Notorious B.I.G and I had a few bites of that. That was delicious. The patties were juicy and all the flavours just married so well together. If you're thinking about going, I would recommend the Notorious B.I.G. read more

The decor of this establishment is sort of like a hipster saloon. The dim lighting complimented with the antique wood decor made it feel very dark and grungy. The atmosphere and ambience was OK , they had a live performance in the back of the restaurant so you couldn't really see much from where I was sitting in the front. Service was mediocre at best, it took over 20 minutes before the waitress took our orders. Followed by an additional 30 minutes for our food to arrive. Food: notorious BIG burger ; beef patty was dry and salty Boss platter ; figured we would order this since it came with a wide variety of the menu items . (Ribs, brisket, sausage, fried chicken,corn bread, macaroni salad and chili) Unfortunately they ran out of the chili . Ribs were cooked and flavored perfectly , I believe they were cooked in the smoker since I could taste the smokiness. Macaroni salad was flavorless, I wouldn't recommend ordering this menu item. Fried chicken was tender and crispy cooked to perfection but found it too salty. Corn bread was moist but to sweet. All in my experience here was nothing exceptional, I doubt I'll visit again for dinner . read more

I have been to this place about 2 or 3 times for dinner and each time they have impressed me. There menu brings a lot of laughs and nostalgia with old school hip hip artist to name there most of there items, for example: The 'Notorious' B.I.G burger,or the 'Return of the Mack' and cheese. Being a hip hop had, it definitely gave us reason to come back as the names really stuck out and it really made us want to try the whole menu. The place is cute, and intimate at times, but later on turns into a popular bar on Port Credit. If you are trying to get in for the bar, expect an hour wait. The hospitality is nice, the waitress amaze me, most times I have gone, they did not use a paper or pen. I mean it could just be the one or two waitresses who have served us that seem to impress me with their memory, but even through the crowd of people, the waitresses were able to get our drinks and order without reminder and in a timely manner. Overall I suggest you go enjoy this place with a group of people, The more the merrier. Take the time to make reservations, and plan a whole night at the place. read more

You know what they say about when one door closes and another one opening? Well Port Credit, imagine that the closing of the old door of the Harp is the opening of FIFTYFIVE reclaimed wood new doors with the long awaited launch of Door FiftyFive. For months, we all craned our neck as we drove past the old Harp at the cheeky window signage telling us that good things come to those who wait? And look at that, Door FiftyFive wasn't just blowing smoke up our corn-holes. Our patience rewarded and our prayers answered, as this new 1920's speakeasy inspired cocktail and southern food bar has taken the shores of Port Credit like storm like the Allied Forces did in Normandy. Similar to the uphill battle faced by our boys back in 1944, Door FiftyFive has their work cut our for them in trying to introduce a hot new concept Craft Cocktails and big calorie laden flavoured meals), popular in major cities across North America into a neighbourhood transitioning slowly into one of the coolest destinations spots in the 905. The owners, designers and management have left no stone unturned here when it comes to the design of this place. Reclaimed wood, exposed fixtures, vintage barrels, and more, all seem to frame modern amenities (such as in table beer drafts). This seems to be a representation of what their going for here, maintaining classic presentations, flavours, and looks and then offering a modern spin on them. This is most noticeable on their cocktail menu, which is extensive to say the least. A lengthy list of classics (avg price $12) including a negroni, a manhattan, an old fashioned, a martini and more, surpassed only by their 'modernist' cocktails (avg price $12-15) which introduces new spins on old favourites. Two must haves, for the show alone, are the Bourbon Rose (which uses dry ice in an incredible way) and the smoked Manhattan ($25) which comes with a wood chip torching fire show that will have you scrambling for your camera or smartphone. This place isn't just cocktails, but they are boozy. 75% if the real estate on the menu is alcohol, a true speakeasy save for the password at the door. They also offer an extensive list of wine (red, white, and bubbles), bourbon scotch, whiskey and craft beer (as well as a few traditional beers for more simple tastes. But what of that other small corner of the menu? To hold it's own against that river of booze, the food must be extra-ordinary, shouldn't it? Well it is! While the food options might now be extensive, the restaurant has decided to follow the old adage to, do one (or a few) thing(s) very well. In just two visits I've been able to try more than half the menu (not because it's that small, but because I'm a glutton). Each dish comes out fast and perfect every time. Blackened Shrimp and Grits in a gumbo sauce, Beef Ribs, Return of The Mac (n' cheese) with Boar, cornbread muffins served with a smokey honey butter, and more, all served up quick and delicious. Note worth mentioning, some of the courses are a tad smaller and better for sharing, so ensure you express to your server your hunger level and ask how big the portions are. This is a menu that's the perfect size and price point that will allow you to order multiple items without breaking the bank. You'd think I'd have nothing left to say, but I'd be remiss to not mention the staff here. Even after only working for less than a week, these people are on their game, bringing it every night. Offering the perfect level of service for a new restaurant, answering questions honestly, making sound recommendations based on fact finding questions, and a willingness to find out more information should they not know the answer to your question right away. A revolution has begun in Port Credit, so the question is, what side of it are you on? Signing off with some GTA pride Eatcrest Out read more

I'm really not a bar person. Dunno why, but I just never went through that phase where I'd meet up with friends, a date...at a bar. Maybe it's a suburban/went to a commuter school thing? Anyway, despite being slightly intimidated by bars, I just *knew* I had to check out Port Credit/Mississauga's newest hot spot! My visit was on a Tuesday night with a coupla old friends for a catch up. I honestly thought this place would be dead, but the extended Summer weather definitely helped. Patio was at least 3/4 full and with the exception of 2-3 tables in the front + the entire back - where the music seemed waaay louder - was pretty much empty. I think Dufton was our server as per the name on the receipt. He was very friendly and helpful in narrowing down our decision from the extensive drink menu. Like the other reviews, there are only a handful of food items on the menu. I had the Pink Panther ($15) and honestly, that was probably all I was able to tolerate as it's a HUGE drink. The top note tasted like an alcoholic orange juice, then with a bit of raspberry, so it's a fruitier drink. Perfect for Summer! As we had a few sips of our cocktails, I wanted to order something to share so server suggested the fries over the mac 'n cheese which was a good call. Fries were SOOO good, well seasoned/fried, perfect for sharing. Being slightly intoxicated while at this place definitely helped amplify my impression. Good service also goes a long way! Note: Yes, the condensation at the back was apparently my issue. And the washrooms, towards the back, had some issue as well as the carpet was completely soaked AND it was absolutely freezing back there. I hope they address this sitch before it begins to freeze over! read more

Ok! A review! Finally! Since Kris U and I decided to grab an old fashioned here in August, not long after Door55 opened, I have been back a number of times, bringing different friends each time and even hitting up a yelp event! As you might be able to tell by my photo gallery and by my rating here, I think that this is exactly the kind of place I have been waiting for in Port Credit, a proper craft cocktail bar with a concise and very cool menu. Any place that throws "the Wu" W onto the menu for chicken and waffles is already going to get some points from me. In this review I will cover cocktails: 1 - the old fashioned - perfect balance, and a nice collection of bourbons to customize should you desire. ( check out the whiskey tunnel at the back). 2 - the negroni - second only to Audrey at the Chase. 3 - the smoked Manhattan - at 25 bucks a pop I splurged with friends for the show. The Manhattan is mixed and put into a glass. The glass then sits on top of a bed of freshly lit wood and is covered with a glass dome for smoke infusion. Very smoky and great if you are into that which I am. Make sure the bartender wipes the glass before you drink from it coming out of the smoke.....otherwise you get smoke stained hands! 4 - the garden of Eden....yes....it is floral, and yes, it is very good! Next review....the food! read more

Door FiftyFive - Paper plane! - Southern Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

My absolute favorite place in the world! (Ok in Ontario.... Next to my home) to eat, drink, and have fun! The ambiance is truly unique (1920s speakeasy) and they have amazing entertainment all week long! Live music and DJs to serve a variety of tastes and interests... Which is amazing but what really sets these guys apart is their food and their drinks!! This IS NOT the place to go for a brew and to watch the game... This is the place to go if you want to tease your palate..... Impress a date..... Hang with coworkers after a long day.... Or celebrate one of your amazing life moments!! Food: I hope I remember this right but their beef and pork are smoked for 7+ hours (all natural ingredients) before being served in wonderful ways from ribs, to brisket ... Sausages made in house too!! My favorite? Farmaggedeon!!! It's a combination of all their meats and sausage layered onto homemade bread, smothered in cheese and the most incredible bourbon infused gravy on the planet, topped with an egg... My description can't do it justice. Trust me you need to eat this!! Chicken and waffles, shrimp and grits ... The list of food options is short but mighty! Drinks: they have an entire cage full of bourbon- need I say more? Yes? The also have dozens of vodkas, tequilas, and everything in between. The Master Bartender Mix is truly a mixologist and has won numerous bartender awards. Try out the Smoked Manhatten (smoked table side for your pleasure) or his take on a mint julep, Negroni (another personal fave) and more! I could keep writing about how great this place is... But honestly, what would you rather do... Read about it or try it? Off you go now.... read more

Visited on a cold snowy Thursday night. Although the weather seemed to slow business down for the night, the outstanding band kept rockin. Decent beer selection with features from Flying Monkey and OverHop. Only food we ordered was the chicken wings and they aren't lying when they call them "Big Boys", they were HUGE! I was a little thrown off by the large amount of breading on the wings but the buffalo sauce was delicious. read more

Fantastic Experience! Gotta try the Smoking Manhattan. What an experience. I also ordered a Margarita and it was Amazing, no artificial crap, served in an aluminium steel cup. Will definitely be returning soon and spreading the word. read more

Door FiftyFive - Southern Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

Came here with a group of friends for a girls night out. We came here to check it out because of all the reviews. It was our first time here and we didn't really like the food. We felt like the food was overpriced and didn't taste good. We ordered chicken and waffles. There was so little chicken. There was bone and very heavily battered. The fries were burnt. The rice dish we ordered, the rice was very hard and was supposed to come with sausages but there was none. The food was not great but the atmosphere was live. This place is probably better for drinks than food. They have a huge variety of alcohol. read more

For a newbie in the wonderful world of bourbon, it was nice to experience some southern hospitality in my neck of the woods. Everything was fantastic from Smoked Manhattan to the smoked chicken wings to the chicken and waffles. Great service, great atmosphere, great drink and great food. I will definitely be back! read more

Pretty busy for opening weekend!!! The tables are full and the paper menus are being studied for the best craft cocktail and gastro pub choices available. I settled on an Old Fashioned and the Return of the Mack Maple Board Bacon & Cheese and pickled veggies. My dining companion chose the beef ribs and cornbread cupcakes. The fact that their menu is paper and says August menu on it makes me very excited for next month's new food and cocktails menu. The service was friendly and genuine. My server's red lip smile made me excited to try this new place! Also I was really gunning for a place that holds its own in this category in sauga. Others have come in with a bang but then faltered after a few visits. The inside is low ceiling and high chairs with gorgeous wood tables and wrought iron detailed walls. One wall was covered with books ;) inner nerd goes yay! Mac n cheese got creamier and creamier as it went. The corn bread came with a nice sweet butter, pickled veggies were delicious in a mini mason jar. I was meh about the brisket, the flavor was there but half fat half meat is a little bit much for me. The condensation in the restaurant made little droplets form on the ceiling and drop down once in awhile, but they were aware of it so I'm sure it'll be resolved soon. There were dry ice drinks and beef ribs on the menu to try for next time!!! Overall pretty solid place with lots of drink choices ;) food prices are fair and have a lot of creativity to it! read more

Door FiftyFive - Southern Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

Yesterday was my first time going to Door Fiftyfive and I enjoyed it! Our waiter and bartender were very helpful and the waiter told us that the bartender created the drinks on the menu and would be more than happy to alter them around as we chose. He also told us that the bartender was within the top 10 mixologists in Ontario. A lot of the drinks had bourbon or gin in them. While I'm not a hug fan of either, both the bartender and waiter recommended the "garden of eden" as the sweetness and floral tastes mask the gin. It had a lot of alcohol in it but all the taste was masked with the different notes which I really enjoyed. I recommend this drink and would get it again and again. If you're up for the challenge of 5 oz and want to spend $25 on a drink, I'd recommend the "smoked Manhattan". They light the drink as the name implies and cover the fire with the drink to allow it to smoke. Watching the drink get made is quite an experience. Next came the food experience: I ordered the Caesar salad with shrimp and watermelon. This dish was quite the experience. The shrimp was spicy which made the watermelon an excellent pairing. Overall, I recommend this dish. My friend got the macaroni salad which was quite the small portion and I felt rather tasteless so I'd recommend going with another dish if you are debating this one. As for dessert, we got the pumpkin donuts with dulce de leche. I'm not sure if we got a bad batch or if it was over cooked, but we didn't taste the pumpkin and it had a strange after taste. I had high expectations for this dish but was rather disappointed. Overall, I recommend this place and would gladly go again. We also enjoyed the live music. read more

Came back after 4pm and the door was open, so glad we came back. The interior is just dark enough to be romantic and the wood is warm and inviting. Our bartender recommended an old fashioned for me and the French 75 for my wife, both executed perfectly. Great place for drinks and/or dinner. We will definitely return! read more
